Chapter 458 Painstaking Efforts
[Frog fun! Yin Lanci is actually more venomous than a tiger!]
Chu Liuzheng looked at the pink ball in front of her who was smiling at her, then looked at the system message, and felt a little tight in her chest for a moment.
She clicked on it and scrolled down to see if the baby could be saved.
[This medicine man is not that medicine man... What does this mean? Are there different types of medicine men?]
While she was looking through the classification of medicine men, Feng Jing came over.
Chu Liuzheng quickly asked him to examine Tang Ge'er's body.
Feng Jing put down the medicine box, took the baby's pulse first, listened to the heart and lungs, checked the nose, eyes, lips, mouth and limbs. He seemed to have discovered something, and his expression gradually became solemn, which made everyone in the hall nervous.
[Oh my, could it be that Tang Ge'er is the worst kind of medicine man?]
Chu Liuzheng couldn't help but ask, "Doctor Feng, is there anything wrong?"
Feng Jing didn't say anything. He called Siyue over to grab Tang Ge'er and pricked the little boy's chubby fingers with a silver needle.
A normal child who was pricked like that would at least pout and sob, not to mention howling loudly. But Tang Ge'er was like nothing happened, as if it didn't hurt at all. Not only did he not struggle, but his big eyes blinked as he stared at the silver needle in Feng Jing's hand.
Feng Jing squeezed two drops of blood from his fingertip into a white porcelain jar, then took out a number of bottles and jars from the medicine box and added them to the white porcelain jar in order. When the blood was running low, he gave Tang Ge'er another injection on his finger.
Tang Ge'er still didn't cry, and even grinned at Chu Liuzheng with his neat teeth showing.
Chu Liuzheng also raised the corner of his lips to him, took his little hand and looked at the two needle holes that were already barely visible, and asked, "Does it hurt, Tang Ge'er?"
She asked this question. The child hadn't said a word since crying because he was hungry. She thought he wouldn't answer her, but she heard a tender, "It hurts."
Chu Liuzheng was stunned, shook the child's hand, and asked, "Why don't you scream if it hurts?"
"Don't shout." Tang Ge'er still smiled, "Mother said, don't shout. Tang Ge'er, be good and smile."
Chu Liuzheng pursed his lips: "Did my mother prick you with a needle too?"
"Yeah." Tang Ge'er nodded his little head and pointed at the silver needle that Feng Jing placed on the table. "Thick."
Chu Liuzheng: "Thicker than this needle?"
"Yeah." Tang Ge'er repeated, his voice tender, like a newly sprouted bud, "It's thick, it hurts."
Looking at Tang Ge'er's little pink face, Chu Liuzheng couldn't imagine how many injections such a small kid had to develop the habit of grinning at the person who pricked him.
She felt so upset that she couldn't ask any more questions. She shook Tang Ge'er's little hand and went to see what Feng Jing was doing.
Here, Feng Jing had stopped adding anything to the white porcelain jar. He looked at the few drops of blood that were still as bright as before, turned his head to look at the little baby sitting on the table, his eyes shining frighteningly.
[Doctor Feng's expression is like that of a wolf who saw meat!]
Chu Liuzheng subconsciously hugged Tang Ge'er in his arms, and at this moment, the emperor arrived.
Xiao Jingfan glanced at everyone, his eyes fell on the doll in Chu Liuzheng's arms, and asked, "Is it him?"
"Yes, his nickname is Tang Ge'er." Chu Liuzheng turned the doll around to face the emperor.
Xiao Jingfan stared at the meat ball for a while, and Tang Ge'er also blinked his big eyes at him. As he looked at him, he suddenly shouted, "Dad!"
This crisp cry made everyone look at the emperor, wondering if this child was the emperor's lost jewel. They had never heard of the emperor having such a romantic affair.
Chu Liuzheng was also quite surprised. She lowered her head and looked at Wawa, "Tang Ge'er, what did you call him?"
"Dad." Tang Ge'er repeated in a clear voice and reached out to the emperor for a hug.
Xiao Jingfan bent down and picked him up, holding him up in front of his eyes, "I am not your father, call me uncle."
Tang Ge'er didn't buy it at all and still called him dad.
Chu Liuzheng looked at the emperor suspiciously.
[Could it be that the tyrant is really having an affair with Yin Lanci? ]
Xiao Jingfan's face darkened.
[The time doesn't seem to match. Let me check.]
Chu Liuzheng deliberately opened the system and took a look.
[Hmm...Okay, Tang Ge'er is definitely not the Tyrant's child. He's too young. Yin Lanci hung a portrait of the Tyrant in his room, originally to encourage himself to replace the Tyrant soon. But Tang Ge'er mistakenly thought the portrait was his father, and that's why he calls the Tyrant "Dad" whenever he sees him.]
She understood, and Xiao Jingfan understood too. He sat down at the table holding Tang Ge'er in his arms and casually picked up a piece of dessert to feed him.
Tang Ge'er was really well-behaved. He held the snacks in his two little hands, looked at the emperor after taking a bite, and looked at the emperor again after taking a bite, as if he was giving the emperor snacks.
Xiao Jingfan felt helpless when the kid looked at him. He reached out and pinched his rosy little face, "What are you looking at?"
"Dad." Tang Ge'er grinned at him, his white teeth quite neat.
Xiao Jingfan corrected: "It's the emperor's uncle."
Tang Ge'er didn't want to listen and just kept calling him daddy.
Xiao Jingfan couldn't really argue with such an ignorant kid, so after correcting him twice without any effect, he gave up. He looked at Feng Jing and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Tang Ge'er?"
Feng Jing glanced at everyone in the hall and said with a bow, "Your Majesty, please dismiss the attendants."
Hearing this, Xiao Jingfan winked at Zhou Yuande, and Zhou Yuande immediately led everyone out.
When the palace door was closed, only Chu Liuzheng, Feng Jing, Xiao Jingfan, Tang Ge'er on his lap, and the secret guards hiding in the dark were left in the room.
Feng Jing glanced at the baby who was munching on the snacks obediently, and said in a complicated tone: "Tang Ge'er is a medicine man."
Xiao Jingfan was startled, and Chu Liuzheng also pretended to be surprised.
"It must have been Yin Lanci who did it." Feng Jing said, "She really took great pains for this son."
Xiao Jingfan frowned: "What do you mean?"
Feng Jing said: "Tang Ge'er is now just like me, immune to all poisons."
"Isn't this a good thing?" Chu Liuzheng poked the doll in Xiao Jingfan's arms. Tang Ge'er stopped eating snacks, looked up and smiled at her.
Xiao Jingfan also thought this was a good thing.
"All medicines are toxic, and being immune to all poisons isn't always a good thing." Feng Jing pointed at himself. "People like us don't usually get minor illnesses, but only major ones, which are extremely difficult to treat. That's because most medicines are ineffective when used on us."
"My master fed me medicine for eight years to make me immune to all poisons. Many of them were extremely toxic, and I was able to withstand them all thanks to my toughness." Feng Jing also offered Tang Ge'er a snack to tease him. "Tang Ge'er is immune to all poisons at such a young age. It couldn't be my master's method."
Tang Ge'er reached out to take it, holding a piece of dessert in one hand and taking a bite at each, switching between the left and right hands.
Feng Jing said, "I just tested Tang Ge'er's blood and found that it can detoxify. Although my blood has a similar effect, it is far less effective than Tang Ge'er's. If my guess is correct, Yin Lanci must have found a way to replace all of Tang Ge'er's blood."
